p1tse Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 anyone have a list of aftermarket exhausts (with pics and estimate prices) and in order of loudness? Quote
AK350Z Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 it's a lot easier to just go to a meet you know Quote
Sarnie Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Or search yourself.................... Quote
Beavis Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Hence why i posted this. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16288 Quote
GIXXERUK Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 never seen a list in order of loudness Quote
Digsy Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 never seen a list in order of loudness Hard to do TBH. Probably only a trader has heard enough to put any comprehensive list together. Quote
bigphil Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 this is not as easy as it sounds. Exhausts are not so much louder than each other but all have different notes and pitches. they come into various catagories such as deep sounding, raspy etc. The notes also change significantly if the car has induction kit, plenum spacer, high flow cats, replacement Y pipe, decat pipes, headers, aftermarket plenums etc the list goes on. As an example the K1 is defined as very loud although the decibel readings are surprisingly low. All we can do is offer a list as a general consensus starting with percieved loudest first. K1 DC Sports Scorpion 5Zigen Nismo Too many variables for the list to be accurate though. Quote
IanS16 Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 How would you say the Fujitsubo does on the loudness scale.. pretty sure mine wasnt too bad at the last Wales run. That was before the Pop charger and Y pipe though! Went to see nemesis a few months ago and they said a new magnaflow was coming out with a cherrybomb before the Y pipe. May be worth a look?! Quote
p1tse Posted September 22, 2008 Author Posted September 22, 2008 i was hoping to find something like this: one of my previous cars, celica had this: http://www.turbomagazine.com/tech/0209t ... index.html Quote
Ian Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 i was hoping to find something like this: one of my previous cars, celica had this: http://www.turbomagazine.com/tech/0209t ... index.html http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Exhaust Similar to what your looking for but not as comprehensive Quote
p1tse Posted September 22, 2008 Author Posted September 22, 2008 thanks bigphil and ian. not checked this site out much, www.350z-tech.com, will do though Quote
bobby Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 ive seen pics of the cherry bomb y-pipe...think motordyne is doing one soon...basically you decat and have a high flow cat on the y-pipe after the merging point... Quote

Digsy Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 never seen a list in order of loudness Hard to do TBH. Probably only a trader has heard enough to put any comprehensive list together. Nice prompt I'd be interested in Adam's take on this as he's likely to move a quite a few exhausts that Phil doesn't deal with. Quote
Stew Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 I bet Adam has run most on his Zed! :lol: Good list from Phil on exhausts readily available in the UK. Quote
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 really is an impossible thing to quantify, since there are so many, and loud does not necessarily mean "sounds poor", and vice versa Altered Atmosphere 3 inch true dual Greddy TIC TT Invidia G200 Turbo XS HKS Hi Power Powerhouse Amuse Ti best bet IMHO is going to a meet and deciding what you like - or, deciding what you don't like - from there it's easier to make a recommendation Quote
lilsheepshagga_turbo Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 boo my new zausty is gonna be a quiet one then.... bottom of adams list..... -ho Quote
GIXXERUK Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 boo my new zausty is gonna be a quiet one then.... bottom of adams list..... -ho he doesnt list nismo, scorpion, milltek, mongoose etc so just because its btm of his list doesnt mean it quiet Quote
Adam@Z1auto.com Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 those are just the louder ones that come to mind Quiet ones - simple - Fujitsubo, Tanabe Touring Medallion, Apexi WS2 Quote
Digsy Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 those are just the louder ones that come to mind Quiet ones - simple - Fujitsubo, Tanabe Touring Medallion, Apexi WS2 Injen? Quote
lilsheepshagga_turbo Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 well if you don't me asking. how is it the best note from an exhaust as your website says. all the videos I've seen they have de cat pipes which give the tinny rattle which spoils it? -ho Quote

martinmac Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Would be easier to do a poll asking who has what to determine which is more popular. Best is not definable, we are back into which is the best colour territory. Quote
